Chapter 75: Chapter 74 Next Time Be Careful

Jiang Xuejun gripped her sword tightly, her expression extremely complex and subtle.

Gao Xuan ignored Jiang Xuejun. He opened a cola for himself and took a big gulp, letting out a comfortable burp.

Wei Zhenzhen timidly reminded him from the side, "Brother, five more have come."

At this time, the five people who entered from behind also opened the rear door.

Hearing the commotion, these people didn’t bother going upstairs to look for someone; all five rushed to the front yard.

All five were fully armed, with the leading swordsman holding a thin-bladed longsword. His figure was lean, his steps light and graceful, moving at an incredible speed.

Seeing these five people emerge, Jiang Xuejun felt a wave of despair. Yun Qingshang was already in danger facing An Yong alone, and now with five more surrounding her, there was no hope.

Now the most rational decision was to turn and run. While Yun Qingshang could still delay them a little, they still had a chance to escape.

In fact, it was just a passing thought for Jiang Xuejun. She was so proud that she would rather die in battle than allow herself to flee in the face of the enemy.

Jiang Xuejun anxiously said to Gao Xuan, "We still have a chance if we go down and help now!"

Gao Xuan seemed somewhat tense; he wasn’t eating sunflower seeds anymore: "We’re done for."

As he said this, he pulled Jiang Xuejun into an embrace: "Let’s die together, then at least we won’t be lonely in death."

Jiang Xuejun was both angry and anxious: "Only by fighting desperately do we have a chance to live."

Saying that, being held by Gao Xuan’s strong arms, Jiang Xuejun’s heart was fluttering, her body went soft, and she couldn’t even think of struggling. At this moment, she forgot her fear instead.

Gao Xuan shook his head and sighed: He whispered in Jiang Xuejun’s ear, "I’m sweet and salty, never tiring no matter how you taste me. Too bad you’ll never know."

Jiang Xuejun’s heart was even more confused; she felt she should be thinking of ways to deal with the powerful enemies. But the more tense the moment, the more stimulating the subtle feelings between men and women became.

When Jiang Xuejun was blushing too much to speak, Yun Qingshang, who had been pursued relentlessly, suddenly counterattacked and charged into the surging Po Jun Sword light.

With a horizontal sweep of her longsword, Yun Qingshang incredibly struck to block the incoming cut of the Po Jun Sword.

An Yong showed a grim smile; his opponent was seeking death!

The Po Jun Sword descended, and Yun Qingshang’s sword artifact unsurprisingly broke upon the impact. The Po Jun Sword did not seem to stall at all, cleaving straight at Yun Qingshang.

Just as Yun Qingshang was about to be cut in two by the Po Jun Sword, she suddenly stepped forward and placed her hand on the back of the Po Jun Sword.

Yun Qingshang’s hand moved like lightning, agile as a cow’s tongue sweeping grass. With stretch, hold, and curl, her hand executed complex and refined changes in an instant, and the Po Jun Sword was lifted high.

An Yong found the Po Jun Sword out of control and hurriedly tried to twist his wrist to slice Yun Qingshang to pieces.

But Yun Qingshang was quicker; as she struck, her foot had already silently stamped on An Yong’s abdomen.

Even though the protective suit absorbed most of the force, the shock of the Source Power dispersed An Yong’s Source Power around him. He went numb on one side, involuntarily taking a step back, the Po Jun Sword losing its power in his hand.

Yun Qingshang’s right knee turned slightly, her lower leg flipped upward, and her jade foot hooked backward, her toes hitting An Yong’s head.

This move, Jade Hook Slope, was a secret skill in leg techniques. Gao Xuan also taught this to Yun Qingshang.

The Jade Hook Slope uses the knee as the axis and the foot as the hook, delivering a powerful toe force when kicking. It has immense penetration power.

Having undergone Genetic Sequence Evolution twice, Yun Qingshang’s body was as firm as steel when exerting power. The penetrating Source Power unleashed by the Jade Hook Slope was even more vicious.

Even though An Yong wore a helmet, he couldn’t withstand the naked foot strike of Yun Qingshang.

The terrifying penetration force of her bare foot shattered An Yong’s brain like tofu dregs. The impact exploded his eyes.

The man stood frozen in place, dead beyond any chance.

Having dispatched An Yong with a lethal move, Yun Qingshang smoothly snatched the Po Jun Sword from his hand.

After her evolution, Yun Qingshang had a body strength of twenty points, more than double An Yong’s. Her Source Power was also more robust than An Yong’s.

The Po Jun Sword in her hand felt weightless.

Just as Guo Xiao flew in from behind, he saw in the air that An Yong had been killed.

Guo Xiao was shocked. He spread his arms in midair, changing his flight to an upward ascent, while his Cyan Sword, like a crane’s beak, descended from above, stabbing at Yun Qingshang.

Flying Crane Strikes the Snake, a masterstroke of the Feihua Sword.

This method attacks from high to low, fast versus slow, skill overcomes clumsiness.

The Cyan Sword, like a lengthy crane’s beak, descends with its graceful posture, sharp stab, and agile movements.

It’s undeniable—Guo Xiao is also a very skilled swordsman.

Yun Qingshang, however, was already prepared. She arced the Po Jun Sword upward and slashed obliquely with fierce momentum.

Guo Xiao, in midair, was already at a disadvantage. Although his sword was quicker, he wasn’t confident he could kill Yun Qingshang. On the contrary, Yun Qingshang’s sword could easily slice him in half.

This counter was too costly. Guo Xiao could only avoid the edge. His Flying Crane Strikes the Snake could only stab into the Po Jun Sword.

Guo Xiao originally intended to use his sword to leverage force, but he didn’t expect Yun Qingshang’s control of the Po Jun Sword to be so fierce yet exquisitely sophisticated.

When the Cyan Sword made contact, the Po Jun Sword spun, not only failing to give the Cyan Sword any force but also wrapping it in.

Guo Xiao was pulled by this force, his figure pausing abruptly. The slashing Po Jun Sword was then upon him.

Guo Xiao felt a sudden sinking in his heart. He had fought a hundred times in underground fighting arenas but never encountered such a terrifying swordsman.

You must know that every swordsman has their strengths and weaknesses.

The Po Jun Sword is so heavy and strong, destined for a simple and fierce sword path. Yet, in Yun Qingshang’s hands, the 29-kilogram Po Jun Sword is as light as a feather, surprisingly capable of producing extraordinarily refined and intricate changes.

One mistake with this move, and there would be no chance left.

Guo Xiao could only desperately return the sword to defend while extending his palm to press against the spine of the Po Jun Sword. In the desperate situation, he tried to learn Yun Qingshang’s move just now.

Unfortunately, Yun Qingshang did not give Guo Xiao this opportunity.

The Po Jun Sword flipped over again, twisting off Guo Xiao’s palm and continuing to advance, cutting both Guo Xiao and his sword into four pieces.

This scene was rather bloody, with the surging blood spraying far and wide.

Jiang Xuejun, who was watching upstairs, was stunned. Yun Qingshang kicked An Yong to death with a move so ingenious and mysterious, yet the speed was too fast for Jiang Xuejun to see clearly.

However, Yun Qingshang’s sword strike that killed Guo Xiao was majestic and the scene was gruesome.

Jiang Xuejun had never witnessed such a scene before, causing her heart to stop beating from fright.

She always prided herself on being brave and strong, daring to play various extreme sports and hunt alien beasts in the wild.

Only now did she realize that she was not much stronger than Wei Zhenzhen.

Yun Qingshang was the truly ruthless one. Usually quiet and gentle in appearance, following behind Gao Xuan like his attendant maid.

Yet, when killing, her eyes didn’t even blink, maintaining that indifferent and cold expression from beginning to end, without any change.

This kind of innate coldness made Jiang Xuejun even more in awe. She also began to understand why Yun Qingshang never paid attention to them.

Perhaps, in Yun Qingshang’s eyes, they were all childish and weak, unworthy of her attention.

But how could such a genius girl be so submissive to Gao Xuan? Could it merely be because of his face?

Jiang Xuejun couldn’t help but glance at Gao Xuan, finding his expression calm, without a trace of nervousness.

His previous tense demeanor seemed more like taking advantage of her.

Could this playboy really be stronger than Yun Qingshang?

Jiang Xuejun found it hard to believe. Yun Qingshang was silent and reserved, possibly practicing swordsmanship every day. However, she had never seen Gao Xuan practice; he seemed to be busy flaunting and flirting with girls all the time, probably with no time for sword practice.

Yet, Gao Xuan’s composure and ease in the face of danger surpassed hers a hundredfold.

Jiang Xuejun realized she had underestimated Gao Xuan before. Not to mention anything else, just this strong mentality was far superior to hers.

In her first swordsmanship lesson, the teacher had said that practicing swordsmanship starts with training the mind.

She understood the principle, and thought her will was strong enough. Only at this moment, with a comparison, did she understand the gap.

Hiding in the car watching the battle, An Hu was also as bewildered as Jiang Xuejun.

An Yong had spoken so confidently earlier, yet before Gao Xuan could even make a move, Yun Qingshang had already killed An Yong and Guo Xiao in succession.

The footage captured by the drone was relatively clear, but it couldn’t capture specific details. An Hu only saw Yun Qingshang effortlessly seize the sword to counterattack and kill.

An Hu quickly realized he couldn’t stay here any longer. If Yun Qingshang came over, he would be finished.

An Hu immediately started the vehicle and turned to escape. The hovering vehicle took to the sky and disappeared in an instant.

The remaining four henchmen didn’t have this decisiveness. They were all hesitating, unsure whether to advance or retreat. Guo Xiao and An Yong were both very powerful masters, but that ice-cold woman had killed them with one sword each.

Although they had guns, they were only anesthetic guns, unqualified to match against Yun Qingshang.

However, Yun Qingshang was within reach, and probably even attempting to run might be futile. Surrendering seemed like the only way out.

The problem was, the four of them didn’t share the same thought. Some wanted to run, some wanted to surrender, while others thought of fighting desperately.

The leading minor leader shouted, "Fire!"

He randomly fired his gun, and regardless of what the others thought, they all opened fire under his lead.

An anesthetic gun’s lethality cannot compare to bullets, but the speed of the anesthetic dart is very high. There was also a spray of electric grid, which was very threatening.

Originally planning to stop, Yun Qingshang hesitated no longer after the shooting started.

The ruthless killer training she received since childhood made her exceptionally sensitive to hostility, and she showed no mercy in her actions.

The Po Jun Sword transformed into a fierce sword light sweeping over, shattering the fired anesthetic darts and electric grid with one ferocious sword.

Before the four henchmen could retreat, they were swept by the fierce sword light, simultaneously cut in half.

Yun Qingshang wielded her sword straight to the front door, then gracefully sheathed her sword and stopped. Without looking back, she went directly to the living room on the second floor.

When Jiang Xuejun saw Yun Qingshang, her breath was calm, and her snow-white bare feet were untainted by dust.

Yet, there was still a bit of cold sword intent between her eyebrows, showing that the fight just now was definitely not a game. Indeed, eleven people had died at her hands.

"Well done, but it’s a bit exaggerated with all the blood everywhere. No need for that much force in your own home."

Hearing Gao Xuan scold Yun Qingshang, Jiang Xuejun was very surprised. This guy’s mind was truly abnormal. Yun Qingshang worked so hard, yet he’s scolding her like this.

What surprised her even more was that Yun Qingshang obediently nodded, "I’ll pay attention next time."

Gao Xuan smiled and gestured with the bag of sunflower seeds in his hand, "Salty and fragrant flavored, wanna try some?"
